Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This accurate, up-to-date text concisely covers the concepts of microbiology and virology essential to understanding clinical infection, disease pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment. The 20th edition features improved illustrations, an expanded section in immunology and a new chapter with case studies. It is extensively revised to reflect new concepts in microbiology, immunology, bacteriology, mycology, parasitology, and virology. Summary tables and illustrative figures convey concepts and basic information in an easy-to-follow manner.

A Lange medical book.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
